Some things strike me as being really odd. Regarding the [commission post]({{ site.url }}/2006/01/05/drawing-commissions/) I made: it's not the first time I try doing this. After I realized that asking for free was not really going to help (because many people don't have time, or the will to do such a project) I already tried in the past about offering money. And in the past I didn't get any responses. Perhaps I chose the wrong channel of communication? I'm not sure. Perhaps people were too busy? A simple "no" would have been better.
But I think it all boils down to the bad habits of people on the Internet. And having read around about Mark Shuttleworth (of [Ubuntu](http://www.ubuntulinux.org) fame) offering money to help the [GIMP](http://www.gimp.org) project and then being forced to withdraw it, perhaps I shouldn't be so surprised.
Nevertheless, I'll keep on trying.
